The 28-year-old – who is the son of the Duchess of Sussex’s half-brother, Thomas Markle Jr. – was charged with felony resisting arrest. The damaging footage was shot just around the corner from the Hollywood Hotel, by a tourist who initially had no clue who they were filming.

Responding officers believe Dooley was under the influence of a substance when they apprehended him and in this video, you can hear him screaming loudly police attempt to calm him down. There was even a chopper on the scene.

At one point an onlooker states the obvious, declaring, “He appears to be naked!”

It took at least 4 officers to successfully push Dooley towards a police car and throughout the 65-second clip, witnesses continue to make remarks as they’re stunned by his nudity.

He went on to say his “deepest fear is history repeating itself,” adding, “I lost my mother and now I watch my wife falling victim to the same powerful forces.”

Harry then went on to describe the Daily Mail’s actions as “bullying,” explaining, “There comes a point when the only thing to do is to stand up to this behavior because it destroys people and destroys lives. Put simply, it is bullying, which scares and silences people. We all know this isn’t acceptable, at any level. We won’t and can’t believe in a world where there is no accountability for this.”
